Hi,
I apparently made a really annoying move and deleted 550 pictures of mine. I still have them on Lighroom Classic CC but obviously, I haven't made the dynamic previews yet on these ones.
The quality isn't the same because I just have the previews but I wanted to know if there still was a way to export these photos ? When I try to do so, it just doesn't work.
Thank you all !
Romain
Extracting JPGs from the Previews is the best you will ever achieve.
Restoring files deleted can sometimes be recovered by running 'recover' software- IF the data on hard-drives has not been over-written!

In your MACOS, look in the Deleted bin, show all files, can you undelete them, or are they completely gone?

Unfortunately they're really gone. I had a backup file and I have no clue of the operation I did but it's deleted and I canno't restore it 😞

Restore the photos from their backups. Then export.

Unfortunately I can't restore these photos, I don't have the RAW anymore...

From now on, make backups. No excuses.

Please understand that recovering the JPGs from the previews gives you low resolution JPG (not Raw) versions of your high-resolution original photos. Make backups from now on, no excuses.
